Driving home from work on route 16 heading towards Assembly Row and a ball of light, non-blinking shot across the sky and towards the ground. Lasted 2 seconds and very very fast. It was a normal light color and i dont know how far it really was but i know it was way too fast to be a plane becasue planes fly higher up with the blinking lights and dont go as fast as this was moving. It happened in a blink of the eye and the way i was facing it went from my right across to the left and looked like it was heading to crash into the ground but i didnt see where it landed, too far away from where i was

I was waiting at a traffic light (with other people in their own cars) when a bright, white light streaked horizontally across the sky in front of me across Eastern Boulevard towards Martin's Airport. It was not an airplane; it was one small light. I thought it was a meteorite at first. It disappeared into thin air over the airport property after about 5 seconds. It was low in the sky and not directly over any of the runways. It did not make any audible noise.

Glanced up above a local restaurant to find a triangular object hovering in the sky. Observed it for about 10 more seconds before it disappeared in a swift and very fast motion into the distance. Seemed to have an outline or glow that appeared to have a slight blue tint or hue.

I have been seeing this object on and off since mid November. It was a small, quiet, blinking object; it's movements were very smooth, unlike a plane or a helicopter. It would move left and right, up and down, and sometimes be in the same place or move to another spot. The color was white, and it looked like it was giving off what, I can best describe, as electricity. When I first saw this object, I thought it was a drone, but it made no noise and, since it was a bit windy, it's movements were too smooth for it to have been a drone. I woke up my husband to have him see what I was seeing - he is very logical and would tell me what he thought it was. But, when he saw it, even he was astonished and unsure what it was. I stayed up all morning watching it, and as the sun was coming up, it stopped moving, almost like it was pretending to be a star.

Lake Orion, MI
I were walking my dog when I heard the sound of a distant fan or water trickling through a fan. It was a different sound than we had heard before but I was concerned due to the extreme ice we have had that someones gas line or something similar may have broken. As I stopped to figure out where the sound could be coming from I realized the sound was coming from above. I looked up, to my shock a large cigar shaped craft pitch black was moving through the sky in and out of the overcast clouds. I would say maybe 5 or 6 football fields in length. It slowly moved west to east towards Detroit. I ran home as quickly as I could to get my phone. Rushing out to take a picture to my dismay it was gone. This was clearly much larger than any hot air balloon I have ever seen, and due to the temperature in the low 30's with wind gusts upwards of 10-20 mph I find it unlikely this "massive" object was Hindenburg which it would have to have been. I am extremely angry! that I did not have my phone on me but who ever has anything like this occur.

So I will watch different webcam’s that are close to me to try and see strange things. I saw a huge round object scan over the NYC skyline, Very cool to say the least… I used to post a lot of these videos, but all anyone who ran these web sights ever said was, “No that’s A plane, or a helicopter”….. Yeah, sure and i’m Santa’s foreman at the toy shop in the north pole !!! Hey see for yourself how large and slow this thing moves, then tell me its from here….!!! Witness indicates that the date of the event is approximate. PD

It looked like a a multi-lane highway of lights that seemed to hang like stars but were swooping slowly in a formation. They moved slowly along the sky like a river of stars, but they weren't as high as stars, as I could see them from different angles as I drove away. I stopped and took pictures. I stopped another driver passing by; they didn't notice at first with the bright street lights drowning out the sight, but once they saw it they were amazed as well and tried to get pictures too. I've never seen anything like this.

Queen Creek, AZ
Hundreds of lights in snake formation traveling above the planes that were coming in to land 3 miles north at Williams-Gateway Airport. Formation headed from north to south then straight up. Each light of snake like formation was at least as bright as a plane's lights, some lights beamed steady white, and some blue blinked, and was at least a mile long.

Saw 3 large sphere shaped objects traveling towards 1 stationary object. They flew in the same trajectory about 45 to 60 seconds apart. It was cloudy and they were just under the cloud base. Were traveling at a slow rate of speed. There was an orange hue like a distant campfire. There was no color change just dimming and brightening. As each one passed they followed the same direction and made a slight angular turn of about 20 degrees to the south of my location. Each one was slightly closer as they passed over and I could see details of the third one. It appeared as if there was an orangeish haze coming off it but not enough to leave a trail. There was a smaller sphere inside of the large outer one and was positioned at about 7:00 area in the direction it was traveling. The smaller one illuminated the outer one. There was no structure to it, it looked like a giant bubble. There was absolutely no sound. The only odd effect was static electricity feeling in the air. The objects grouped to gather in a diamond shape and ascended into the clouds and that was the end of the sighting. I have an hd video that is about 6 minutes. As the last one went overhead my phone shutdown... I do however have the majority of it recorded with some detail of the closest one.

At 11:50 PM, I witnessed, out of my living room window, a slow moving,large round, very bright white light. It was coming straight down, low in the southeast. It did not streak across like a meteorite or have any type of tail as it came down. It was the largest and lowest falling object I have ever seen. Seemed like it was very near considering the size. No noise was heard.

We spoke via telephone with the witness, and found her to be exceptionally well-spoken, eloquent, and sober-minded. She has stated that she will submit another report, with more detail about the sighting. She did not see the Description box below the Summary box on the Report Form. PD

My oldest son and I, where coming home from a friend's house on 12/17/2017. It was dark already. We where driving down Sullenburger, when we noticed a bright light. We stopped the car because we could not see to drive, it was like someone was shining a spotlight in our eyes. We sat there for what seemed like only a minute and started driving again. I had a funny feeling like I was just waking up. (After talking to my son he experienced this "just waking up" feeling also.) Kinda disoriented that's when I noticed the First Baptist church. We where no longer on Sullenburger we where on Clardy St. Both of us looked at each other and started comparing stories. We lost a full 20 minutes. Both he and I both had a strange buzzing sensation at the base of our skulls and neck pain for about 15 minutes after this encounter.

Mt Morris, PA
Sunday night @ aprox 8:00 pm est. Me my wife my 11yr old son and my 8yr old daughter were traveling on I-79N from WV.to PA. We exited I79 via exit 1 Mt Morris PA. We turned left off the exit towards down town Mt Morris when my wife says. What the hell is that in the sky!! I looked to my right and seen a large cluster of red lights. At first I thought it was a right away lit with red lights cutting over the Mountains. But the more I looked I could deff tell it was not .. There were @ least 10 maybe 14. Very Bright Red Orbs. From what I seen it looked like they were paired up. It was like a half moon formation with one side straight but they looked like there was a pair then a space then a pair. Unfortunately we did not get any video or photos. But it was witnessed by everyone in the car. We all seen the same red lights and the formation. The only discrepancy in our story's are my kids said that it was moving, and I thought it was still. But I was driving and could have not seen it move as I was watching the road also. Not sure what we saw but it was strange. Cluster

Planes often fly over my house very often, and very low. But this was not a plane. A huge triangle shaped craft flew over my house very low, maybe 500 feet, and made no noise what so ever. It almost resembled a B-2 bomber, but it was way too big to be one of those. It only had three lights which were all white and no red ones. During the pass my cats started acting wierd and stared at it and started whimpering which freaked me out a lot.

At 720pm 12/17/17 I exited my apt building and immediately noticed a brightly glowing red/orange object in the sky due west at an angle of about 45 degrees. Simultaneously noticed an object to the WNW at an angle of about 30 degrees, identical to the first, but not as bright. First (brighter) object began to move slowly east, the glowing aspect becoming brighter and sparking. Attempted to take video with my camera, but as I was attempting to film, the object dimmed and faded from view when reaching about 90 degrees of angle (almost straight above my head.) Sighting lasted no more than 30 seconds. Later, at aprox. 725pm, noticed an identical object due west in the sky at an angle of 30-40 degrees. Immediately told my friend to come observe it. It was bright, same red/orange glow, as we watched it moved due east slowly for less than a minute but more than 30 seconds, then the light faded rapidly to a very dull glow of the same color, then changed direction from due east to either due west or down from our perspective. Watched it moving down or due west for aprox. 30 seconds, it's glow barely visible to the eye. Friend and I stopped attempting to observe any more at 730pm.

My daughter and I saw a group of about 25 chevron shaped crafts all glowing a soft orange color and in what looked like a staggered military style formation flying from North to South, which made no sound all while maintaining there formation and speed until I lost sight of them in the night sky
